Is there a classification of real-linear (rather than complex-linear) finite-dimensional representations of SL(2,C)?

On the level of the Lie algebra, this is the same as the real representation theory of $SO(3,1)$. Theory of irreducible representations of simple real Lie algebras is well-developed, see for instance this book.
